I logged into a Captn Norrington Facebook account I have for the first time in a few months...and this was an unpleasant discovery.
He was 24 years old, and had been in my guild on Atlantic for about 10 years. I literally watched him grow up in my guild, and despite only being 14 at the time of joining, he was truly one of the most friendly, kind, and overall beloved members out of the 5,000+ people who have been in the guild. He died of suicide, while in a hospital, exactly one month ago. I would never have expected this...he was always so upbeat and positive the entire time I knew him. I'm glad the guild and I had the chance to play together with him, but he'll be missed very much. Take this as a reminder that UO players are real people in the real world, too, and our actions in-game can have consequences that are farther reaching than we know, both positive and negative.
Rest in peace XxWonderbreadxX.
